Free Lecture Series, Wisdom in Action, to be Presented at Rutgers presented by Philosopher Sunanda Leelaram

Experience a fascinating three-day lecture series on the theme of ancient wisdom and its role in everyday life from 6:30 to 8 p.m., on September 27 through 29, at Rutgers University. 

Facilitated by Sunanda Leelaram, affectionately known as Sunandaji, an eminent philosopher from India and the daughter-disciple of world-renowned guru and author Swami Parthasarathy, the weekend will concentrate on Wisdom in Action. Participants will learn how to make life more dynamic, focused and productive, while remaining mentally peaceful and stress-free. This knowledge is derived from the ancient Indian philosophy of Vedanta, which is a combination of the words veda (wisdom) and anta (ultimate). 

In a style that has been described as profound, yet practical and pleasing, Sunandaji will teach the fourth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, an ancient Vedanta text that systematically explains the wisdom underlying right action that leads to happiness, prosperity and ultimate fulfillment of life’s purpose. 

Sunandaji has been studying and researching Vedanta for almost four decades. She has addressed diverse audiences across four continents. Her presentation of ancient wisdom in contemporary thought has received widespread coverage in television, radio and print media. She serves as senior trustee of the Vedanta Cultural Foundation, a charitable trust dedicated to the study, research and propagation of Vedanta philosophy worldwide.

Cost: Free. Parking is available. Location: Trayes Hall, 100 George St., New Brunswick, NJ. For more information and to register, visit VedantaUSA.org. See ad, page 8 in print magazine.


5 Top Tips to Finding Your Next Doctor

1 Keep an Open Mind! Healthcare has come a long way. Today, you have access to practitioners that branch outside of traditional medicine and aim to identify the root causes of conditions while using alternative treatments that may help you get the relief you need. Just because it’s not a pill, doesn’t make it pseudoscience.

2 Build Your Health Care Team. There is no one doctor that can be the be-all-end-all for your health needs. Be sure to have a team of practitioners with different “lenses” and areas of expertise who will treat the root cause and not just the symptom(s).

3   Environment Influences Healing. Health is multi-factorial. Your mental and emotional environment plays a pivotal role in your healing potential. Your doctors and their staff should create an office atmosphere filled with positivity so you can get the most out of your care.

4 Your Story Matters.  Before you begin any treatment, be sure to have a comprehensive consultation to discuss your health concerns. Find practitioners who welcome questions and will take the time to listen and treat you with respect.

5 Report of Findings. When it comes to our health, we often make decisions without understanding the risk versus benefits. Knowledge is an important part of the healing process and is essential to make conscious, informed health decisions. Find practitioners who take the time to explain their exam findings and the recommendations for treatment in ways that make sense to you.
